Prior to Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3, an authenticated Asterisk REST Interface (ARI) attacker with read-only privileges may use `setChannelVar` to execute write dialplan functions, including `FILE()` writes, even when `live_dangerously` in `asterisk.conf` is set to no. The Asterisk HTTP web server must be enabled and reachable, and the attacker must already have valid `read-only ARI credentials`. HTTP is disabled by default and binds only to 127.0.0.1 by default even when enabled. This issue is fixed in Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-27T17:58:46.257+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-27T17:58:46.257+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"asterisk","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"asterisk\",\n                    \"product\": \"asterisk\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 20.20.1\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 21.0.0-pre1, < 21.12.3\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 22.0.0-pre1, < 22.10.1\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 23.0.0-pre1, < 23.4.1\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"certified-asterisk","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"asterisk\",\n                    \"product\": \"certified-asterisk\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 20.7-cert11\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 22.8-cert1-pre1, < 22.8-cert3\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","score":8.1,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/security/advisories/GHSA-vrfp-mg3q-3959","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/8f8ccaf70a80e518147b0c35c0c252de4735446f","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/92a5dd1003b737ae1cd2df4e60b73beb8d5e42bb","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/ba04e7f1f98887c3c6e0dc4ddce663021f7e948a","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/bf9354267557ef6d6b75f5304faa243f595a5a66","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/caa4d50d9c3bf04fc979b5b2cdc5dc425772d845","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/d47b0b6e5a384746db194f751b53d559aba8dba9","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/commit/d8614505b27688dec3a1d14554f52fda94712928","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/20.20.1","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/21.12.3","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/22.10.1","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/23.4.1","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/certified-20.7-cert11","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/releases/tag/certified-22.8-cert3","https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/tree/24.0.0-pre1"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-57202","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-57202","identifiers":["CVE-2026-57202"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
